Guero 1: every single one, so they say
Jim: yes

My son has called my from jail, but have not heard from him in awhile. There was a number 602-542-0006 on my caller Id. Are they checking out my number. I was not home. So will they block calls from the jail coming here?

That same number called me today too. The man asked me my name and then hung up. My child's dad is in the Arizona state prison. So I am not sure if they were checking my number or what either.

This phone system doesn't sound rite. you have to set up to accounts one with this company and then the other with PIMA COUNTY JAIL! It seems like you are going to be beat some where in the process.

the phones are cut off at 10 pm and any time they lock down or someone fight or during the jail bringing in inmates. $5.40 cents every 5 minutes you talk!

Well I've been wanting to get ahold of my boyfriend. He called me once but it cost around $72.00 for 12 minutes. Where do I go to pre-pay minutes so it's cheaper?
